The
Enhancing Language Development in Childhood course is a tool to
support teachers’ use of language facilitation strategies.

Language is a
powerful tool which helps to form our thoughts and reactions and
which facilitates communication. Children learn the fundamentals of
language in their home, in school and from their peers. Language
development in children is important to help them organize their
ideas and build symbols. Children come to understand and communicate
language during early childhood and this valuable course will guide
you on how to enhance the process of language development.

Parents and teachers can help sustain
natural language development by providing environments full of
language development opportunities. The ExpertRating Enhancing
Language Development in Childhood Certification course will be
useful for parents, teachers and leaders who want to hone the
language development skills of the children.

How do children
learn language? Play! And not with flash cards,
or anything else that you can buy. Children are
born with a complete package of
language-learning tools. The only accessory they
need is you, helping them unlock their natural
instincts for language. After reading this first
section, you'll be using play and instinct to
communicate soundlessly with a newborn, to help
him fill his language-building toolbox, and to
create a stimulating environment for language
development.

Friday - Lesson 02

Imagine a
database of sounds in your child’s brain. Where
do these sounds come from? How does she file,
sort, and choose to use these sounds to
communicate? This lesson will look at why her
mind is made for these remarkable tasks, and
you'll learn straightforward ways you can lend a
hand (even in the form of sign language!). This
lesson also includes a fascinating overview of
brain and mouth anatomy.

Week Two

Wednesday - Lesson 03

You say, “Shelly
just said, ‘ball’!” But your friend says, “Nah,
that was just babbling.” Who's right? Does
something count as a real word if it isn’t
pronounced perfectly? This lesson will explore
what makes a word real and how to interpret your
child’s patterns of simplifying early language.
You'll also start using a journal to uncover the
rich potential in your child’s one- and two-word
phrases.

Friday - Lesson 04

Once you
understand the mechanics of hearing and
understanding, your role in encouraging language
can be powerful, simple, and fun! Many
caregivers ask at this stage when they should
start to worry about language delays. This
lesson will soothe your concerns by discussing
what to watch for, when to seek assistance (and
from which type of specialist), and when to stop
worrying and keep playing! This lesson will look
through a list of typical first words that you
can use to trace your child’s communication
explosion.

Week Three

Wednesday - Lesson 05-

Can you guess
when a baby’s brain grows the most? How do you
facilitate this growth? Again, the answer is
play! In this lesson you'll match favorite
infant-caregiver games to the neurological
functions they stimulate. You'll also learn how
language affects the development of thinking
skills, just as the function of thinking affects
language development. In this lesson you'll
explore how to keep this circle of growth
cycling.

Friday - Lesson 06

Your kiddo is
talking, but you’re not done yet! Although
two-word phrases, such as “get ball” certainly
communicate an idea, your child will keep
refining his sentences as he grows. In this
lesson you'll find out how to help him progress
to past tense, contractions, pronouns, and
conjunctions. You'll also learn about the
fascinating thought processes behind questions.
Don’t forget your journal!

Week Four

Wednesday - Lesson 07

Wow–now you have
listening, speaking, sounds, words, and
sentences. What more is there? Lots! Is it still
fun? Does she still need you? Of course! This
lesson will continue with a few more do's and
don'ts for caregivers, emphasizing a favorite
learning tool: games!

Friday - Lesson 08

Expanding on the
earlier anatomy lesson, in this lesson you'll
learn how sounds depend on strong, agile mouth
muscles. Before you start thinking about tongue
push-ups, remember one always focus on
maximizing the opportunities within natural
interactions. A discussion of feeding—including
your choices of bottles, cups, and straws—is
key. This lesson will answer complex and
controversial questions about pacifiers, sippy
cups, and thumb sucking, and will provide some
great tips for easing necessary transitions.

Week Five

Wednesday - Lesson 09

Some sounds sound
fun (like boing!), and some sounds feel fun
(like zzzzzz). What does this kind of fun teach
if it doesn't use precise words? In this lesson,
you'll find out what you're teaching when you
encourage your little one to play with sounds.
You'll also learn which speech games will help
you make the connection from speech to reading.

Friday - Lesson 10

Now you know that
speech, language, and communication are
different, but related, topics. Using your
knowledge of how sounds make language, in this
lesson, you'll learn how language is used to
communicate and connect with others. It is
called social use of language. In this lesson
you'll also learn how to help your talker become
a conversationalist!

Week Six

Wednesday - Lesson 11

Although children
follow similar development processes, no two
walk the same path. As more is discovered about
learning, the lines between different, delayed,
and disability grow foggier. Demystifying these
terms is easier when you learn about different
learning styles, and when you understand the
styles used by you and your child. While you
can’t eavesdrop on your child’s thoughts, what
you learn in this lesson will help you help her
connect her learning style and her use of
language.

Friday - Lesson 12

Teaching a child the alphabet
tends to be the first step toward reading, but is it where
literacy begins? While this skill can be gratifying for
adults to see, literacy begins in the brain and is nurtured
with fun and games. As you've learned about language skills,
literacy doesn’t come in a box from the store. When you
understand instincts and use them in fun and play, they come
from you.
